Until last week, you absolutely NEEDED an NVidia GPU equipped with CUDA to run all AI models. Today, that is simply not true. (watch the video at the end of this comment) I watched this video and my initial reaction to this news was validated and then some: this video made me even more bearish on NVDA.

If anything, they are more dependent to NVIDIA and the CUDA platform than anyone else. to simplify: they are bypassing the CUDA API, not the NVIDIA instruction set architecture and not CUDA as a platform.

Ahh. Thanks for this insight.
